Drascombe Lugger "Tica" from Gan to Binnacle Island

Last part in our series on sailing in the Thousand Islands from our rented cottage on Binnacle Island, just west of Gananoque.

Beautiful color on that interior.

That Lugger is a beauty!

[@chriswork9829]

Good times.

Tell me more about your rig. Boom and Bow sprit set up.

Did a short vid on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKbGY5yvh7ypgpY

You should be wearing life jackets when sailing regardless of location or weather conditions. An old salt

Thank you.

Why 4 jib lines? I’ll be sailing my new old lugger up there this year.

[@jackrabbit5047]

She's rigged as a cutter (two headsails).

[@normneiderer6337]

@@jackrabbit5047 With two headsails, the Drascombe Lugger is then called a Smack, not a Cutter. The bigger headsail is a jib and the smaller forward headsail on the bowsprit is called a flying jib in the UK or a Yankee in the USA

@@normneiderer6337 Now that's a great trad name for it. Thanks.

@@normneiderer6337 Isn't a smack a specific type of vessel, eg. a Colchester Smack? And then cutter is the broader term for a rig with 2+ headsails? I'm not sure; all the term definitions seem rather woolly!
